*Flash Forward 6 Months*
I was sitting on the front porch of the big house watching the campers arrive for the summer.
I smiled as I saw two Aphrodite girls rolling in gigantic bags and the Ares boys following behind with the rest of their things.
I was watching as the taxi cabs, buses, and cars pulled up then away unloading children in between.
I heard foot steps behind me and whipped my head around and looked up.
Liam was standing behind me smiling down.
"Stalking the children I see" he said jokingly taking a seat beside me.
"Very funny" I said rolling my eyes.
Liam stared at me for a minute and I felt the air get a little awkward.
Liam and I had never really talked about the night I ran away.
We just kind of glossed over it and decided to become friends.
Though at times it still became awkward.
"You have your last round of Therapy today right?" Liam asked me after a little while.
I nodded looking straight ahead.
That was also a sensitive topic.
Only a select few people knew about my depression and suicide attempt. I didn't want all of camp to look at me like I was some crazed lunatic.
Chiron had requested I see a therapist and when my mother heard about the incident she insisted.
So I've been going to a therapist for about four months.
It was really awkward to talk to a complete stranger about my feelings and emotions and honestly nothing brought me more joy than leaving her office.
"I have something I want to tell you" Liam said.
I stop looking straight ahead and slowly turned to him.
"Okay, do you want to say it here or do you want to go for a walk?" I asked him.
Liam thought about it for a minute and then replied.
"Can we go for a walk? I'm not sure I want to say it here in front of the big house" he explained.
I nodded and we both stood up and I followed Liam towards the shore.
We were walking along the shore for a little bit before Liam decided to continue the conversation.
"I found out who my godly parent is" he explained.
"You did? That's fantastic!" I exclaimed giving him a hug.
He didn't hug me back so I pulled away slightly confused.
"Aren't you excited?" I asked him.
He shook his head.
"Why?" I asked him.
I didn't understand how someone could not be excited about finding out who their parent is.
"Cause technically I'm not supposed to exist" Liam said quietly staring out at the lake.
I froze and it got together in my head.
"Artemis" I said.
He nodded glumly.
"She broke her vow with my father and now I'm an embarrassment of her" he said in a monotone voice.
I looked at him incredulously and I shook my head.
"You aren't an embarrassment Liam" I said making him look at me.
"You couldn't possibly bring anything but pride to your mother" I said to him staring him straight in the eyes.
He looked at me and I suddenly noticed how close we were.
"Elise" Will whispered his breath fanning across my face.
I shivered biting my lip.
"I like you a lot" he said.
Well this conversation shifted quickly.
"I like you a lot too" I said to him.
Liam took a step back from me and I felt a little disappointment.
"I want to do this the right way" Liam said and I felt my heart start to race.
Was he proposing again???
"Elise Jackson in the words of Carly Rae Jepsen I really really really really really really like you" Will said with a grin.
I rolled my eyes at his stupid song reference.
"Elise Jackson, will you be my girlfriend?" He asked me stepping forward again.
I smiled and kissed him.
I pulled away and he smirked.
"Last time you did that you kicked me in the nuts" he said.
"I could do that again if you'd like" I threatened.
Liam shook his head.
"No I'm fine" he said quickly.
I smiled and gave him another kiss.
"Come on you have therapy" he said and I frowned.
"It's the last session Elise suck it up" he said with a smile throwing his arm around.
--------------------------------"So Elise how has it been" Dr.Fairfield said as I sat down.
"Normal, I guess" I said awkwardly looking around the room as usual.
"I think you've made some remarkable progress" Dr.Fairfield commented looking through my file.
I smiled.
"I think I've made some progress too" I lied.
Dr. Fairfield chuckled and placed my file aside.
"I just want you to relay the whole story to me without any emotional break downs and I believe you'll be free to go" She said looking at me with her lip pursed.
I sighed.
I hadn't been asked to relay the story since 3 weeks ago.
And that time I busted into tears at least five times.
"Where should I start" I asked her.
"Where you always do" she said.
I sighed and then took a deep breath.
"It all started one day when I woke up soaked....."
The
End
